There is writing on it. I will cover it up before shipping. It's a slightly shorter design. I used to wear it as is, or with a collared plaid shirt underneath, so the hem would show. There are some pills on the cuffs. This is a used item worn by a child. Please refrain from purchasing if you are looking for perfection or are overly concerned about details. Children outgrow their clothes quickly, and it's a shame when they can still be worn. I'm selling these at a low price, hoping someone else will wear them!! There may be small pills, stains, fuzzing on the surface, or small specks of dust that I may have missed, so please understand this before purchasing. *I'm organizing my clothes, and I plan to list many other children's clothes and shoes. If you want to buy multiple items, please comment. Please take a look!!!
